Kid ’n Play will turn Shephard’s into a House Party on Sept. 1, and they’ll be joined by C&C Music Factory, who are Gonna (try to) Make You Sweat. Now, we know something about this show is making you go, “Hmmm...” — probably the fact that one of the C’s in C+C Music Factory, David Cole, died in 1996. Well, the group reformed in 2010 with new vocalist Eric Kupper joining Robert Clivillés. (Seems like he should have adopted the spelling “Cupper,” right? We digress.) Admission is $15.

On Sept. 2, Vanilla Ice will return to Shephard’s for a little Ice Ice Baby, joined by Rob Base (It Takes Two ... though apparently it doesn't take DJ E-Z Rock, Base's partner on that hit single) and DJ Skribble. Tickets will be $20. Click here for info.

But don’t think the party stops on Labor Day weekend. Far from it. On Sept. 14, Grammy-winning hip-hop group Arrested Development (above), famous for alternative pop hits like Tennessee and Mr. Wendal, will bring their 20th anniversary tour to the State Theatre in St. Pete. Tickets are $17. Click here.

Finally, on Oct. 5, Tone Loc will return to St. Pete for a show at the State Theatre. He gets paid to do the Wild Thing, so if you want tickets, they’re $16. Click here.
